Earth in Space

Earth in Space 

In this STC/MS earth science unit students are introduced to relationships in the solar system (with special emphasis on the Sun-Earth-Moon system). This happens through observations of surface features, seasons, tides, and investigations of gravity and motion. Students will be challenged to model these phenomena and recognize that their models need to be compared with empirical data.
